Filinvest Land, Inc. (FLI), one of the country’s leading full-range property developers, marked a significant milestone on September 26, 2024 with the groundbreaking ceremony of Iloilo Centrale, an 11.4-hectare residential township in Iloilo. This heralds its expansion in the province following its highly successful One Spatial Iloilo condominium project in Mandurriao district. Nestled in the tranquil coastal town of Leganes, adjacent to Iloilo City, this development is set to offer upgraded town center living for Ilonggos and all aspiring to thrive in the progressive region.
Life Inspired, Shared: A Vision of Progress
Strategically located along the Iloilo R-4 Road, just 2.5 kilometers from Jaro district, Iloilo Centrale is designed around the core value proposition of “Life Inspired, Shared,” offering a complete and convenient lifestyle for its future residents while embracing the warm and distinctive culture of Iloilo.
The master-planned development is anchored on a 1.4-hectare town center block that brings together commercial spaces, retail pods, child-centric spaces, and active zones bannered by a 9-a-side football field that will be home to a football academy and host to football camps.
The groundbreaking ceremony was led by FLI First Vice President and Residential Township Business Head Gerard Marcelo and FLI Vice President and Regional General Manager for Visayas Louie Henry Carandang together with local government officials including Leganes Mayor Hon. Vicente Jaen II and Cagamutan Sur Chairman Hon. Renato Espinosa. The milestone celebration was also witnessed by prominent figures from renowned football associations including Barotac Nuevo Tamasak FC coach and former Philippine national football team member Ian Araneta, Iloilo Guimaras Regional Football Association’s chairman Jaime Nicolau and secretary general Ric Venus.
In his keynote message, Marcelo highlighted the township’s key pillars of convenient town center living, refreshing parks, and walkable neighborhood.
“Iloilo Centrale’s town center brings everything closer, providing easy access to everyday essentials. Its active parks are designed to inspire an active lifestyle with every component encouraging movement, play, and wellness,” Marcelo said. “At the core of Iloilo Centrale’s design is the desire to create a place where the spirit of community thrives. More than just a commercial hub, the town center is envisioned as a space where residents can gather, celebrate, and share experiences. It is a stage where Ilonggos can express their rich heritage and foster a sense of belonging,” he added.
